At the agreed time, they arrived at the Software Avenue Center Apartment. The first thing that caught their eyes in the one-room apartment where Jiang Shuting lived was a mess. It was the first time that Jiang Shuya came to her residence. She saw instant noodles, drinks, and snack bags scattered everywhere on the table, and clothes piled haphazardly on the sofa and bed.

I couldn't find a place to put the fruits I brought.

"Don't you usually clean the house? Jiang Shuya turned around and looked around and said unceremoniously: "Chen Lin, how can I tolerate your mess!"

She knew that her sister had never liked doing these things since she was young and had never contributed anything to housework. She didn't expect that she was still like this even though she was so old now, and she couldn't stand it anymore.

"Usually he is the one who cleans the house. He has to work overtime at the company recently and doesn't have time to come, so this is what happened. Don't be upset. I'll call a part-time worker to do it." Jiang Shuting picked up the phone and was about to make a call, but was stopped by Jiang Shuya.

"You take care of Tangtang for a while, I'll do it." Seeing the sister carrying Tangtang to the balcony, finding a big garbage bag, and starting to clean up, washing, mopping the floor, wiping the table, folding quilts, and sorting clothes, until all the dirty clothes were put into the washing machine for washing, Chen Lin pushed the door in, looking dusty, holding a big black bag in his hand. He opened the lid of the bag, and a black digital camera with a flash came into view.

Chen Lin took two photos of Jiang Shuting and Tangtang, demonstrated, and taught her how to adjust the flash mode and the near and far mode. He also explained other functions. The overall operation was very simple. Jiang Shuya was able to use it after trying it twice, but her photography skills still needed to be practiced. Fortunately, the requirements for taking photos of authentic brand-name clothing were not very high, as long as the pictures were clear.

After tidying up Shuting's room, they went to the restaurant downstairs to eat and ordered some northern specialties, which were a bit spicy. Jiang Shuya was not very hungry, so she ate two of the steamed buns she brought with her, asked for a glass of water, and fed Tangtang some rice noodles. During this time, Chen Lin kept picking up food for Shuting and watched her eat with a doting look on his face. Seeing this, Jiang Shuya smiled without saying a word. Tangtang, who was sitting in her arms, saw that her aunt was eating very happily, with saliva bubbling in her mouth, licking her tongue, and babbling, which made them laugh.

"Sister, I plan to resign." Jiang Shuting suddenly said this without stopping the action of picking up the food in her hand.

"Oh, so what are your plans next?" Jiang Shuya saw Chen Lin's frown and chuckled in her heart.

"I don't like this job. I want to start my own business. I have only made preliminary plans. The project I am working on is not finished yet. I will hand it over after it is finished. It will take about three months, and then I can do what I like. Don't you want to be a purchasing agent? I will teach you how to open an online store. Come when you are free. You have no computer knowledge. How can you run an online store if you don't know these?"

Jiang Shuya knew that her sister would do what she thought, so she did not refute it. However, Chen Lin, who was sitting next to her, saw that Jiang Shuya did not object immediately, and his expression changed slightly. He patiently persuaded her: "Shuting, if you really want to start a business and not go to work, I don't have high expectations for you. I hope we can be stable, including your job. You have worked hard to get the promotion opportunity, so you will give it up easily. The major you have studied for so many years will be wasted. You'd better think it over before making a decision."

At this time, Jiang Shuting was obviously impatient: "Is it true that the major I studied and my ideal job can only be achieved by working? Why do you ask me, or your family asks me? If I can't even do what I want to do, is there any need for us to be together? Do you think you look down on me because you have made outstanding contributions at work? The era of big data is just the beginning. There will be more breakthrough algorithms in the future. It seems that I have contributed to the breakthrough in Yiyun big data research and development."

After Jiang Shuting finished speaking, she stopped looking at him and continued to eat, looking as if it had nothing to do with her.

Jiang Shuya looked at her in a daze, then looked at Chen Lin. He adjusted the frame of his glasses with his hand, pursed his lips, and remained silent.

Jiang Shuya always thought that Chen Lin fell in love with Shu Ting at first sight, and he gave his all, which naturally included appreciation, recognition, and affirmation. The beautiful years were only those few years. Shu Ting was not particularly good-looking and had never dressed up seriously, but she was very much in Chen Lin's eyes. She had poor self-care ability, did not like to tidy up, had no extra socializing, had no emotional space, and devoted herself to academic research, calculations and drills. She did not communicate much with her family, but she never lied.

After listening to what she said, she knew that even if Shu Ting ran away from home, Chen Lin would not file for divorce. They may have loved each other sincerely and used each other, but they could not avoid hurting each other. After the meal, Jiang Shuya quickly paid the bill. Before leaving, Chen Lin looked at the camera bag reluctantly. Jiang Shuya saw his reluctance and smiled: "Don't worry, I will keep it carefully and return it to you within a month. I will buy a new one myself later."

"No need to return it, I'll give it to you." Jiang Shuting

"Ah! What did you say?" Jiang Shuya asked. "This is mine. The company gave it to me as a reward during the mid-year celebration. I thought it was a little too big, so I gave it to him."

Jiang Shuting said nonchalantly

Jiang Shuya opened her mouth but didn't say anything else. She knew that her sister was not just talking when she said she would give it to her. She was usually taciturn and frugal with words. She never showed any regrets about what she said and did. But how could she really accept such a valuable thing? She thought in her heart that she would return it immediately after using it. She knew that the man standing next to her was not a very generous person, and she had never thought of taking advantage of her sister. Naturally, she couldn't let any gaps appear between them.

Jiang Shuya hung the camera on her body, secured Tangtang behind her, and said goodbye to Shuting. Tangtang followed suit with a happy look on her face, and Shuting also showed a childlike smile. As the car started, the smile became farther and farther away.

After returning home and washing up in the evening, Jiang Shuya unexpectedly saw Huang Minghao coming back. In the few days since he came back, he rarely appeared at home at night. He always lived a day-night-reversed life. Now, wasn't he playing cards and drinking with that group of people all night long? Seeing her looking at him curiously, he ignored her and took a towel into the bathroom. After a while, he came out with his upper body naked, wiping his wet hair while saying, "We have sold all the grapes. You can help Sanma's family sell some. They have a lot of grapes and are our real relatives. Don't confuse them."

"Aren't you back? Since you are a relative, you should do more. What's the point of just sitting at the table and making promises?" Jiang Shuya said indignantly.

Huang Minghao threw down the towel, walked forward with a ferocious look on his face and pushed Jiang Shuya: "What did you say? Say it again."

This action almost pushed Tangtang down.
